Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2007-2362

It was discovered that in MyDNS, a domain name server with database
backend, the daemon could be crashed through malicious remote update
requests, which may lead to denial of service.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 1:1.1.0-7etch1.

The old stable distribution (sarge) is not affected.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
